Suse 9.1 here and the system internal time is definitely NOT in UTC. It may have been at install time, but after a little patience and a lot of beatings I finally got it to work like I wanted, which is local time. Since it is all relative anyway, it makes very little real difference except that I like it better.
IIRC, Unix systems generally set the hardware clock to UTC. However, if you dual boot to Windows, you have to use local time.
